  • Title: "Diagnosis" of a hiatal hernia from a CT coronary artery calcium scan.
    Author: Kerut EK, Balart JT.
    Journal: Echocardiography; 2017 Oct; 34(10):1515-1518. PubMed ID: 28895189.
    Abstract:
    Identification of a hiatal hernia by computed tomography (CT) scanning, and particularly with axial imaging from a coronary artery calcium score exam, is often subjective. There are several CT features that are diagnostic or at least suggestive of a hiatal hernia. As a hiatal hernia may be the etiology of a chest pain syndrome, it is important to be aware of CT findings suggestive of such.
